WTK: Info on C96 Broomhandles !
 

Can anyone out there recommend good sites or literature for the broom handles? I am considering a purchase of one and at this time know little about them. Any assistance is appreciated.

Thanks !

Dean

Have you checked out www.simpsonltd.com, they have a nice collection of brooms for sale.

A good site for information : http://www.northwest-denture.com/mauser1896

A word of caution, DO NOT use 7.62X25 ammo for a Tokarev pistol. Only use 7.63X25 ammo specifically loaded for the Mauser. The Tokarev ammo is too strong and can blow a Mauser up or worse, break the bolt stop and allow the bolt to fly back into the shooters head.

Replace the bolt stop if you plan to shoot it and learn to reload if you want to shoot it very much. Have fun. They are great guns to shoot!

Hello Dean,

For your information, I am a collector of Mauser Broomhandles, and you can preview some different models on my web site named Imperial Arms. I also show a variety of other rare Mauser pistols which might interest you.

Happy hunting,

Thanks for the info guys. Still in the beginning stages of this. I have wanted a Broomhandle since I first saw "Joe Kid" back in the 70s. They are like lugers(which I also love) in that they have that certain charisma.
